Say It Ain’t So: There Won’t Be More Jon Snow

The spinoff with Kit Harington's sad-eyed Stark is no longer in the works

Game of Thrones 6x10 The Winds of Winter television review Jon Snow

There have been a slew of Game of Thrones spinoffs in the works since the original series had its finale in 2019. And while House of the Dragon is about to come out with a second season and The Hedge Knight just cast its Dunk and Egg, there have been other projects that have fallen to the wayside.

The most notable one was the Naomi Watts-starring series that took place ten thousand years before the original show, which shot an entire pilot before getting axed in 2019. And today, Jon Snow actor Kit Harington confirmed that the potential series centered around his character is no longer in development.

In an interview with Screen Rant, Harington had this to say about the project:

“I hadn’t really ever spoken about it, because it was in development. I didn’t want it leaked out that it was being developed, and I didn’t want the thing to happen where people kind of start theorizing, getting either excited about it or hating the idea of it, when it may never happen. Because in development, you look at every angle, and you see whether it’s worth it.

And currently, it’s not. Currently, it’s off the table, because we all couldn’t find the right story to tell that we were all excited about enough. So, we decided to lay down tools with it for the time being. There may be a time in the future where we return to it, but at the moment, no. It’s firmly on the shelf.”

Say it ain’t so! That doesn’t mean, however, that we won’t see more Game of Thrones-related shows coming to a television near you. In addition to The Hedge Knight and House of the Dragon, a series centered on King Aegon is still in the works as is an animated show about the Sea Snake. icon-paragraph-end
